On March 23, 2007, We uploaded our first video on the MidwayUSAYouTubechannel. Since then, MidwayUSA founder and CEO Larry Potterfield has taken his passion for teaching and gunsmithing and created a FREE library with more than 500 videos on shooting, reloading, gunsmithing and more!

Gunsmithing "How to" Videos

The most recent video features Larry Potterfield making a cut-away version of a Winchester Model 12Pump Shotgun. Viewers will see the inner workings of the Model 12 easily as Larry cycles dummy rounds through the gun to show how a shell goes from the magazine tube, through the action and into the chamber.

"This fascinating video demonstrates the complete cycle of operation including how pulling the trigger releases the hammer and fires thegun," said Potterfield. "The cut-away clearly shows how the Model 12 locks and unlocks and how a round is extracted and ejected."
